Our Background

Established in 1879, the Mupu Elementary School District is 139 years old. It first served the ranching families of the Santa Paula Canyon and in later years expanded to include the housing tracts and houses along Ojai Road (HWY 150). Mupu School is the second smallest of five small districts in Ventura County. We are known for our high academic standards, a strong family-oriented learning community, and for caring about every single scholar who walks through our doors. Welcome to the Mupu tradition!

Schoolwide Culture

Mupu is a school where scholars enjoy learning and are encouraged to be the best that they can be. Our small size and family-like setting enable everyone to know each other and to develop close ties. The children at Mupu receive a high quality, standards-based education—with lots of care and individual attention. You’ll find Mupu a nurturing and safe place for your child to learn and grow.

Principal's Message

Welcome to Mupu Elementary School! We are glad to have you as part of the Mupu Family, a place where all teachers and staff are here to help children learn in a safe and nurturing setting.

Over the summer, Mupu staff has worked hard to ensure a successful 2019-20 school year. New Chromebooks, textbooks, and school supplies have been purchased, carpets and classrooms have been thoroughly cleaned, and our field is ready for fun and activity. We look forward to having all of our scholars back on campus for a wonderful year of learning.

At Mupu, it is very important that teachers, staff, parents and scholars work as a team. I would like to invite every parent to get involved with our school community through volunteering, being a part of the Mupu Parents Club (MPC), and attending our monthly Coffee & Chat meetings. We welcome communication and look forward to hearing your suggestions, concerns, and feedback. There are many opportunities for you to be involved with your child’s education. Please contact our office if you would like to volunteer in the classroom, playground, library, office, or at a school event.
